Riverland Wine Industry Blueprint

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (15:01): Final supplementary: when does the minister expect the re-engagement package to filter through to practical improved outcomes for Riverland growers and other growers around South Australian regions?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:01): When I was in China last month the indications were that some of that activity would resume pretty much as soon as the tariffs were lifted. At the time I was there, of course, the interim decision was received and then it took several more weeks before the final decision from the Chinese government came through. I think as soon as exports begin there's going to be the beginning of the impact for all affected wine areas and then that will continue to grow.

An honourable member: You do realise there's a backlog, Clare.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Of course I do.
